We know that in the face of media giants and information empires, this channel or magazine is almost a non-entity. However, there is a vacuum and we are determined to fill this gap and make our voice heard. Indeed, BRITASIAN BUZZ aspires to be the link, the bridge between communities in Britain and ensure and ensure wider participation of British Asian in the task of building a better Britain.
